I just finished a battle with no arty.  I stayed in my base and took no damage.  We won reasonably well, I think there was 6 or 7 us still alive at the end.  Then I got repair for 372 credits.  WTH??  Can what that would have been for please??

Critical Hits adds a bit to repair costs.

Did you find yourself in a collision with another tank?  That looks something like a track repair bill.  But why did you sit in base?  Didn't you help your team mates?

Taking track shots, and no damage crits still has a repair cost.

I took no hits from anything.  Nor did I run into anyone.  Uh and coke the map was campinova,  and I was bottom of our list, any of the great monsters we were facing would have one shotted me.

If you took no shots and didn't run into anyone, you didn't have a repair bill. If you had a 370 credit repair bill, you either took a shot to a module or you were in a collision with another tank. Post the replay if you're so convinced that neither of those things happened, and I'm sure someone will be happy to watch it and point out the instance when it happened.

Russian tanks can mount a "removed speed governor", which actually slowly damages the engine in exchange for 10% increased engine power. It's useful for those times when you really need the extra speed (I have one on my SU-85 and my T-34), but after a few minutes of it running, your engine gets damaged(turns yellow). Turning it on even for a few seconds will give you a small repair bill, however.
M-18 is American though, so you must have taken a hit, or been in a collision.

Gotta pay for the scratches to your paint job if you hit/scraped another tank, or took module damage.
